pinth-st. was a pralScwOlthy one, ana II Is "
10 regretted that they Ictrcatcd from the posi-
lion which they first took. Owing to the pro-
tc>tations of dealers, IT has been decided That
the sale of these dangerous articles shall be
permitted in the district bounded by Broadway,
Church-st., Munayst. and ConIandt-st. Sales,
however, must be made in unbrokcn packages
and fireworks must be kept apart from other
goods. This is certainly Il step IN the right
direction. Fireworks in a city are nuisance
and constant source Of danger. as the de-
structivc fire in the dry goods district last
summer bears witness. and the restrictions
upon the sale of them can hardly be too rigid.
